An unnamed man from Singapore has earned praises from the netizens after he went out of his way to rescue a puppy who seemed lost and wandering in the middle of a road.

Netizen Sunita Parhar took a video of the rescue and uploaded it to the Facebook page of SG Road Vigilante. According to Sunita, they were driving down Upper Thomson Road when they saw a poor puppy walking in the middle of the road.

She added that the puppy looked so distressed as it tried to avoid oncoming vehicles. Luckily, the vehicles were also trying to avoid him and slowing down as they came near the puppy.
